[TITLE: ON PURPOSE]
[GENRE: Alternative Pop, Indie Pop, Alternative Rock, Electronic Rock, Indie Hip-Hop, Glitch Pop, Atmospheric Synths, Punchy Drums, Warm Bass, Crunchy Guitars, Catchy Chorus, MALE VOCAL ONLY, Subtle Dark Humor]
[INTRO: Soft piano, room tone, warm synth pulse, distant guitar feedback. No drums.]
[VERSE 1: Conversational MALE.]
[MAIN VOICE]
I took the long way home tonight.
Didn't have anywhere to be.
Passed the place we used to stop
For coffee after three.
The sign is gone.
The chairs are gone.
Funny how a place can disappear
Without actually moving.
[BACKGROUND VOICE: Spoken MALE, dry, clear.]
You miss it?
[MAIN VOICE]
Sometimes.
[BEAT: Punchy drums, warm bass, light guitar.]
I keep a couple things
I probably don't need.
A ticket in a drawer,
A name I never deleted.
Not because I want them back.
I guess I just like knowing
They happened.
[PRE-CHORUS: Synths and guitars rise.]
Maybe that's enough.
Maybe some things
Don't need a reason.
[CHORUS: Catchy MALE vocal. Big drums, crunchy guitars, wide synths.]
I took it on purpose,
Even if I didn't know.
I took the wrong direction
Just to see where it would go.
Maybe I don't need
To know where I'm going.
Maybe I just like
The way the road keeps moving.
[VERSE 2: Rhythmic MALE rap. Playful, conversational.]
I got a list of places
I've never been.
A map in the glovebox
With a circle drawn in red.
Don't remember making it.
Probably did it late at night.
I bought a ticket
For a show next month.
Don't know who's playing.
Guess I'll find out
When I show up.
[BACKGROUND VOICE]
That's irresponsible.
[MAIN VOICE]
Probably.
[PRE-CHORUS]
Maybe I don't need
A perfect reason.
Maybe some things
Are better left unfinished.
[CHORUS]
I took it on purpose,
Even if I didn't know.
I took the wrong direction
Just to see where it would go.
Maybe I don't need
To know where I'm going.
Maybe I just like
The way the road keeps moving.
[INSTRUMENTAL: 45–60 seconds. NO VOCALS. Crunchy guitar riff, warm bass, glitch percussion, piano motif, atmospheric synth lead. Build to euphoric.]
[BRIDGE: Piano and soft guitar only.]
[MAIN VOICE: Quiet MALE.]
Maybe the point
Was never getting somewhere.
Maybe I just needed
To leave the house.
[BACKGROUND VOICE]
You forgot your keys.
[MAIN VOICE]
...Fuck.
[FINAL BUILD: Kick, bass, guitars and synths rise. Layered MALE vocals.]
[FINAL CHORUS: Biggest section. Full drums, guitars, huge synths.]
I took it on purpose,
Even if I didn't know.
I took the wrong direction
Just to see where it would go.
Maybe I don't need
To know where I'm going.
Maybe I just like
The way the road keeps moving.
[BACKGROUND VOICE]
You sure?
[MAIN VOICE]
No.
[OUTRO]
But I'm going anyway.
[Silence.]
